I knew no one would like it, I find the thought depressing myself, but I'm currently caught up in my own legal case (civil), it's simpler than City's case yet it has been dragging on for a lot longer. But as far City goes it's simple maths, 130 charges times 3 days each is over 18 months, and whilst it's right that some charges are wrapped up with each other and could be disposed of quicker than this, other charges might take a couple of weeks. What I'm saying is, the amount of time taken so far doesn't mean City haven't won (or have), or that there is a conspiracy to hold anything up, or even that there has been any delays at all.
As for the number of times I've posted, I'm having none of this 115 bollox it's 130 (roughly).
